Hand Numbered edition of 300 in a hand assembled gatefold sleeve Otto A Totland and Erik K Skodvin are perhaps best known for their beautiful Deaf Center records on Type. For the first time, 'Harmony From The Past' features them working solo on the same record. The title refers to their shared history, beginning as school friends in Langesund, southern Norway to discovering they had a mutual obsession with music and computers and eventually recording incredibly bleak, yet life affirming music together. Yet their lives have diverged over the same period, which is where we find them now, Otto presenting a suite of three piano pieces - his first ever solo material - and Erik working for the first time with percussion and feedbacked electro-acoustic guitar. The results are, almost predictably, dark and mysterious: Otto's keys sounding like icy water dropping in a great hall, and Erik's 'Blind' impressively revealing a dynamic new angle to his oeuvre, one we'd love to hear him explore further.
